I aiiin't no joke; I used to let the mike smoke,
now I slam'it when I'm done and make sure it's broke...

Wow, just wow! Imagine my surprise when I hear that song on the Saints Row demo. Eric B. and Rakhim on the soundtrack; that's awesome. I was moderately enjoying the music and game before that, but that song literally 'got' me more involved in the game because it seem so appropriate. It also got me thinking about what other rap songs from the '80's they might have on the soundtrack: EPMD, MC Lyte - I used to think I was going to marry that lady, KRS-1 and Big Daddy Kane. The last game soundtrack that I enjoyed that much was from College Hoops 2K6.

Did any of the GTA games have a soundtrack as cool as this? I've read about the period music in the games before. Hell, I own GTA III for XB and have only played it once. Saints Row may make me go back and play that game through. I read the multiplayer impressions and there seem to be a few concerns. I'm hoping they are ironed out, but how much can they do with the game a mere month away? I thought the control scheme in the single player demo was not confusing at all, especially if the control customization option is there. Saints Row has moved up to a game of interest. I'm going to keep my eye on it.
